But later if you want picture #5 to appear as #1, you will have to change the sort numbers on your pictures. If you delete a picture, the sort numbers for the remaining pictures do not change (e.g., if you delete picture #2 out of 4 pictures, you will show pictures #1, 3, and 4.)Caption: Caption is the description you write for your picture.Browse: This is the most important one, for this is how you find the picture on your computer and get it to appear on your page.

All personal contact information is held strictly confidential. This website is owned by our Reunion Committee or admins..

This site was originally created for the purpose of connecting with all the past students in order to have a reunion. However, since the site allows students to connect with one another thereby re-establishing old friendships, it has been decided that the site should serve a dual purpose. So not only is the site just for the reunion but for anyone in the School or year group who just wants to reconnect, even if they are not going to the reunion.

Yes. Even if you do not plan to attend the reunion, it is hoped that there are old friends on this site that you would like to reconnect to and for that purpose you can still join the site. THE SITE WAS NOT BUILT FOR REUNION ONLY BUT FOR US TO CONNECT

Yes. As time goes on, volunteers will become necessary to make sure that the reunion is a success.
